Answer:

The percent composition of fluorine is 65.67%

Explanation:

Percent Composition is a measure of the amount of mass an element occupies in a compound. It is measured in percentage of mass.

That is, the percentage composition is the percentage by mass of each of the elements present in a compound.

The calculation of the percentage composition of an element is made by:

percent composition element A=\frac{total mass of element A}{mass of compound} *100

In this case, the percent composition of fluorine is:

percent composition of fluorine=\frac{39.6 g}{60.3 g} *100

percent composition of fluorine= 65.67%

<u><em>The percent composition of fluorine is 65.67%</em></u>

1. Explain how groups 1A-8A in the periodic table are organized by their number of valence electrons.
nirvana33 [79]

Explanation:

1. Explain how groups 1A-8A in the periodic table are organized by their number of valence electrons.

The valence electrons in an atom are the outermost shell electrons. They are the most loosely held electrons in an atom.

Coincidentally, the periodic table of elements divided into vertical groups and horizontal periods can be said to be arranged according to the number of valence electrons.

  • Atomic numbers are used to arrange elements on the periodic table.
  • Down a group, the number of electronic shell increases. More electrons are added to new energy levels.
  • As we move from left to right across a period, the number of electrons in elements increases but electronic shell is the same.
  • Down a group electronic shell increases but the number of valence electrons are the same.
  • All elements in Group 1A has just one valence electrons, Group 2A has two valence electrons.........Group 8A has eight valence electrons.
  • Moving across groups is synonymous to moving from left to right on the periodic table.
  • Due to this trend, the periodic table is arranged based on the number of valence electrons.

3. explain how you know the number of valence electrons for each group.

The number of valence electrons in a group is the group number:

   Group      Number                     valence electrons

              1A                                                 1

              2A                                                2

              3A                                                 3

              4A                                                 4

               5A                                                5

               6A                                                6

               7A                                                7

               8A                                                8

Students were investigating properties of matter, but wanted to make sure that when they tested these properties they had proper
Mariana [72]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

An intrinsic property is a property that is internal, that is, it characterizes the substance under study. The possession of an intrinsic property depends on the nature of the substance. An intrinsic property does not depend on amount of substance but on the nature of the substance.

Examples of intrinsic properties include; Density. Solubility, Melting Point, Freezing Point, Boiling Point, Conductivity etc.

Intrinsic properties really represent the matter that is being studied. For instance, the boiling point of water will always be 100°c. No other liquid can boil exactly at that temperature. Hence, this intrinsic property can always be used to identify an unknown liquid as water.

The students were right, studying intrinsic properties accurately represent the matter that is being studied.

Which compound is an isomer of propanoic acid (CH3CH2COOH)?
arlik [135]

Answer:

D) HCOOCH2CH3

Explanation:

An isomer of a compound is defined as a chemical substances with the same formula (That is, same atoms) but in different structures.

For propanoic acid, there are <em>3 atoms of C, 6 atoms of H and 2 atoms of oxygen.</em>

A) CH2CHCOOH . Here you have 3 atoms of C but 4 atoms of H. That means this compound is not an isomer.

B) CH3CH2CH2COOH . Here, there are 4 atoms of C. Thus, is not an isomer.

C) CH3CH(OH)CH2OH. This structure has 3 atoms of C, but 8 atoms of H. Thus, is not an isomer.

D) HCOOCH2CH3. Here, there are 3 atoms of C, 6 atoms of H and 2 atoms of O. Thus, this structure <em>is an isomer of propanoic acid.</em>
